We Know Elementary Education
At The Carey School, we believe that where you are educated first, matters most. We've been educating elementary students since 1928, and we know how to do it right.
Our unique seven-year learning path blends the best of traditional methods with the most innovative ideas to achieve a just-right, developmentally appropriate balance for all ages and stages. Our students graduate with confidence, well‐prepared for the next school and beyond.
We Celebrate Community
Students. Faculty. Staff. Families. We’re all in this together, and that's the magic of Carey. Just as our students are happiest when they are authentically engaged, our community shines when we come together to celebrate a tradition, dive into a parent education topic, honor a community member, or engage in service. We all join in creating a vibrant, supportive community that helps everyone reach their fullest potential.
We Value Great Teaching
Carey's teachers set us apart. They are passionate, they are constantly learning, and they know how to engage and inspire.
Great teachers come to Carey because we value them. We search the country for top talent and help them flourish once they’re here. Our small class size lets teachers reach students as the unique, individual learners they are. Our professional development program keeps teachers at the top of their game. And our “specialist” structure lets teachers teach what they love and know best. Carey homeroom teachers are masters of the core, and our specialists concentrate on specific areas like science, technology, world languages, physical education, and the arts.
Our approach supports teaching that is vivid, deep, and purposeful. And it yields students who share a joy for learning and habits of mind that will serve them for a lifetime.
